Product Details

Released in 1974, Queen II pushed the band's operatic ambitions further than almost anyone thought possible at the time, with Freddie Mercury's layered vocal arrangements and Brian May's dense guitar orchestration setting a template that would run straight through to Bohemian Rhapsody a year later. The album's division into a "White Side" and "Black Side" reflects the band's theatrical, conceptual instincts at their most unrestrained.

With the classic Mick Rock portrait on the cover, Queen II was actually the band's breakthrough in the UK, with `Seven Seas of Rhye' being their first major UK chart hit, translating the U.S. success of their first album into triumph at home.
